Enhancing Corporate Wellness Through the Functional Fitness Test


Embracing Data-Driven Solutions for Effective Problem Solving

Leverage Health Data for an Effective Wellness Strategy

  • The Functional Capacity Exam checks how well a person can perform certain job tasks.

  • The Health Risk Assessment looks at possible health risks to help improve overall health.

  • The Functional Fitness Test measures how fit a person is to make sure they are ready for physical activities.

  • The Pre/Post Employment Test evaluates if a person has the right skills and abilities for a job.

The Functional Capacity Exam (FCE) is used in workers’ compensation cases to evaluate an employee’s ability to perform their job tasks. The software analyzes the injured employee’s health status, needs and restrictions, degree of impairment, and ability to return to work. It easily detects malingering and symptom magnification. Rely on the FCE’s comprehensive report to make safe and accurate disability determinations.


If your employee seeks disability, request retraining benefits, or claims injury, rely on the comprehensive FCE report to make safe and accurate determinations. The FCE can easily determine an individual’s functional restrictions, need for other medical treatments, and proper steps for rehabilitation. It can even identify baseline skills that may be transferable to another line of work.


The Health Risk Assessment (HRA) is a holistic appraisal of an individual’s overall health. The 10-to-15 minute evaluation consists of a peer-reviewed health and lifestyle questionnaire, a vital sign assessment, and and physical measurements. The HRA generates a rich report analyzing the individual’s health and lifestyle, body composition, metabolism, vital signs, possible health risks, and overall health score.


Unhealthy employees, who may be at work but are not working optimally, cost companies over $180b each year in lost productivity. When employers invest in corporate wellness initiatives, they recoup their investment in healthcare savings. And with the HRA’s concrete health data driving your program, you know you’re steering accurately toward real results.


The Functional Fitness Test (FFT) combines several sets of various exercise tests with physical measurements in order to assess an individual's overall level of fitness. The software automatically generates a report analyzing body composition, flexibility and posture, muscle strength, balance and motor coordination, and speed and agility. The FFT assigns fitness grades to each area, culminating in an overall grade.


Alongside the HRA, the FFT is designed to maximize the effectiveness of corporate wellness initiatives. Physically fit employees work harder, miss fewer days, and are more productive. The FFT’s concrete fitness data allows organizations to plan and track progress, while the FFT’s easy-to-read fitness reports allow individuals to clearly understand their results, and how to improve.
